Agree. And Waymo is almost always higher than both.

prior to 2025 I found Lyft was often cheaper. But now I find Uber pricing is often better in many markets.

I will say on the whole I like Lyft drivers better - more polite and no safety incidents like I’ve experienced on uber. Also I have a 5.0 rating on Lyft and 4.86 on uber so the feeling must be mutual.
